Author(s): Manish Bajaj*, Gaurav Jain and Anshul Meena
Background: Neglected and relapsed Congenital Talipes Equinovarus (CTEV) presents significant challenges in pediatric orthopedic surgery. While the Ponseti method has revolutionized initial management, many patients still require surgical intervention for persistent or recurrent deformities. This study evaluates the efficacy of combined lateral column shortening, talonavicular fusion, and adductor hallucis lengthening in managing resistant deformities. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 22 patients (34 feet) with neglected or relapsed CTEV who underwent lateral column shortening with cuboid wedge resection, talonavicular fusion, and adductor hallucis lengthening between 2015 and 2022. Patients had a minimum follow-up of 24 months. Clinical assessment included morphological evaluation, functional outcomes, and radiographic ana.. Read More»
